Chapter 206 Siege

It's noon.

Outside Zhending City, inside the Qin army camp, the misty smoke rose, and it was the time when the Qin army buried the pot and made rice.

After lunch, at Zhending City, 70,000 or 80,000 Qin soldiers were displayed under the city, and these were all real elite soldiers.

Although Li Chen also raised more than 100,000 troops, after the three groups were divided into three groups, his main force was only 70,000 to 80,000. Although the troops were not large, there were also many.

You should know that Li Chen's soldiers are different from Cao's soldiers. The Qin soldiers under Li Chen are professional soldiers, while Cao's soldiers are military farming soldiers. If they face the battle head-on, a Qin soldier can be worth two or three Cao's soldiers.

Under Zhending City, these 70,000 to 80,000 Qin soldiers all had a shocking morale. This was the military soul, the Qin army's military soul.

At the forefront of the 70,000 to 80,000 Qin troops, the leader was Qin King Li Chen, and next to Li Chen was Chen Qingzhi in white robe.

The famous general Mo Zilao, with thousands of troops avoiding white robes. Chen Qingzhi, the white robed military god in the city, was the actual command of this army.

The biggest advantage of Li Chen is that he dares to use people and is good at hiring people. He never likes to be a layman and commanding experts like any principal in later generations.

Li Chen’s favorite thing is to be a hand-off manager. This battle is much better than Li Chen’s own command.

Under Zhending City, Chen Qingzhi was wearing a white Confucian robe and a long sword hung around his waist. Chen Qingzhi was a Confucian general, so even during the war, he was not wearing armor.

Chen Qingzhi raised the long sword in his hand and shouted: "Today, we will destroy Zhending City."

"The city of Zhending will be destroyed."

"The city of Zhending will be destroyed."

"The city of Zhending will be destroyed."

The Qin soldiers behind Chen Qingzhi roared loudly. This is the momentum that only a strong army can have.

"Break the city."

After a while, a soldier carrying a ladder began to rush towards the loess walls of Zhending County. In front of these soldiers carrying a ladder, there were also some sword and shield soldiers holding round shields.

"Swoosh!swoosh!swoosh!"

At the same time, the Cao army on Zhending City naturally would not watch the Qin army siege. The city walls were shot with dense rain and fell on the soldiers carrying the ladders.

A soldier carrying a ladder was shot and someone immediately made up. However, the closer the ladder was to the city wall, the more people were killed or injured. At this moment, Chen Qingzhi's order was issued again.

"Cover." I saw Chen Qingzhi waved the long sword in his hand and the order was conveyed again.

"Crack, creak, creak."

Only a sound of the rotation of the axles sounded, and the catapults were pushed out from behind the army, and next to the catapult were dozens of eight-ox crossbows.

At this time, after some test just now, Chen Qingzhi had already determined the location of the Cao army archers on the city wall. After the catapult and the Eight-Nuo Crossbow were in place, Chen Qingzhi immediately asked them to aim at the location of the archers on the city wall.

"put."

At the command of Chen Qingzhi, countless huge rocks the size of human heads and crossbow arrows as thick as arms shot towards the city wall.

The power of the Eight Niu Crossbow's crossbow arrows is beyond everyone's imagination. These crossbow arrows can easily shoot through the loess battlements of Zhending City Wall, and then shoot through the armor of Cao Jun on the city wall, piercing them together like wearing candied haws.

Each Eight-Nuo Crossbow crossbow can shoot seven crossbow arrows at the same time, and the largest crossbow arrow can completely ignore the defense of the city wall. After dozens of crossbow trucks fired for more than a dozen rounds, they completely silenced the archers of Cao's army.

"What kind of crossbow arrow is this? It's so terrifying?" Cao Ren was shocked when he looked at the crossbow arrows that penetrated the walls and pierced them into candied haws, and then nailed them to the city gate tower.

Not to mention anything else, such sharp crossbow arrows are something Cao Ren has never seen in his more than ten years of military career. Such powerful crossbow arrows are enough to be called invincible in the world.

"The Qin army's crossbow is invincible in the world." Cao Ren couldn't help but sigh on the city wall.

Although both sides are now opponents, Cao Ren has to admit that the Qin army is really the only one in this great man who can shoot the city walls through such a crossbow arrow.

You should know that although the city walls of Zhending County are rammed with loess, this loess mixed with glutinous rice juice is also extremely hard.

Soon, Cao Ren also discovered that the Qin army under the city had masters. No matter how many positions he changed the archer meter, whenever they fired archers, at most three rounds, the Qin army under the city could find the position of the archer meter on the city wall from the landing point of the arrows. Then, there were rounds of heavy crossbow arrows.

Before the Qin army soldiers began to climb the city wall, the two sides had a long-range competition. In this long-range competition, Cao's army could be said to have lost a lot.

It has to be said that Cao Ren is definitely one of the few generals under Cao Cao who can stand alone. After discovering that the archer cluster is vulnerable to attack, Cao Ren immediately thought of a countermeasure. He divided the archers on the city wall into a team, 50 or 60 people, hid behind the city wall, and then ordered the sword and shield soldiers to erect a large shield in front of the archer, and then started shooting.

Cao Ren divided the crossbowmen into a team, which made Chen Qingzhi unable to judge the position of the archer. However, if the same archers did not shoot in groups, the threat that the soldiers carrying ladders under the city would be very small.

After Cao's crossbowmen were silent, the Qin army soldiers soon rushed under the city wall of Zhending County on a ladder.

In a moment, ladders were mounted on the city wall, and the end of the ladder was equipped with iron hooks. After the ladder was placed on the city wall, the iron hooks would form the battlements of the city wall to prevent being pushed away by soldiers on the city wall.

In a short period of time, more than a dozen ladders were laid on the city wall. Under the city, teams of Qin soldiers holding shields and long swords immediately began to climb towards the spear one after another.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

After a while, I saw more than a dozen ladders, each ladder was filled with dense Qin soldiers, just like ants climbing up a tree.

They held a round shield in one hand and blocked their heads to avoid damage from the stratoes and stones. They held a long sword in their mouths and kept holding the ladder in their hands, climbing up quickly.

In this era, the first group of soldiers who could climb the city walls were called First Landing. Those who could act as First Landing were undoubtedly the most brave soldiers in the entire army.

The archers scattered on the city wall were already difficult to effectively kill the soldiers climbing on the ladder. At this time, Cao Ren of the city wall waved his hand and issued an order: "Roll the stone and roll the wood, smash it for me."
